Shanon Woolf, CJE, Adviser
Shanon Woolf, Certified Journalism Educator, advises two award-winning journalism programs at McIntosh: the online news site The Trail and the Legend yearbook.
Woolf is the Georgia Scholastic Press Association’s Adviser of the year for 2022. She earned her Certified Journalism Educator credential in April 2021 and was Awarded Star Teacher at McIntosh High School in May 2021. Woolf was named a Journalism Education Association (JEA) Rising Star in 2020. She was also the Georgia Scholastic Press Association’s First Year Adviser of the Year in 2019 and has been a member of the JEA’s Scholastic Journalism Week committee since 2019. Woolf judges online news and yearbooks for several other states, and has presented at many scholastic journalism conventions, including the National Scholastic Press Association, Georgia Scholastic Press Association and Jostens Adviser University.
Woolf loves two things: Coke Zero and helping student journalists and photographers hone their craft. She collects smushy pennies from her travels and polydactyl cats who need adopting.
